I can confirm it on a EEE 1000 and some generic no-name rt2860 cards I have installed in a pair of MSI laptops. The only driver under Intrepid that I ever got working across both was Adam's (of EEE kernel fame) DKMS driver. None of the others I ever tried worked on the EEE and the generic cards. It seems we're back to that state with whatever half-baked driver the kernel team decided to ship. The day anybody besides Intel ships a Linux, working, open source wireless driver I swear I'm gonna have a heart attack. The RT* is borked (again), my backup "N" Atheros cards actually cause Jaunty to freeze up/crash (I don't remember the last time I had a driver load that was THAT borked since I quit using Windows for heaven's sake).

Some days it just isn't worth chewing through the restraints.
